Hello wise Perlers! I'm translating a Microsoft Word macro into Perl and am having trouble on one line, which moves the focus to the next Section. Can you help me translate this one line into Perl? Thanks!

        See Win32::OLE for how to pass named arguments:

        $ex->Dmethod($RequiredArg1, {NamedArg1 => $Value1, NamedArg2 => $Value
+2});

        If you have more questions, these would be covered in an introductory course to Perl.
